Tracks



01. A Darkened Mind

We walk alone to the edge of insanity
In the end of time we fall... tonight?

Never walk alone outside or pull the strings when you are alive in a dying world
It's a mesmerizing thing
These are the nights where the holy morning rise
Now it's time for you to open your eyes

When i look into your darkened mind i take you in, no compromise
There's something wrong inside my head

Can you forget all the promises, is the truth too hard to take?
Now i know there must be time to forgive, we will be one again

I don't know where to find myself, though i can fell it anyway
I won't forget all the things that you promised me
My darkened mind will never set me free

02. Abyss

Can you feel my broken spirit?
Seeing only visions of how it should have been
Rendering what shaped my existence
Wanting a change, but imprisoned by the past
I am lost in my inner forest of conflict
When this journey began, my life was chaotic
Because of my hate held hostage by my hown hand
My feelings inflict me
I see no way but in life
Erase the pain that's eating me up inside

Venturing deeper and deeper into the abyss
Hearing voices like someone I know
Feeling harder to breath
Then to be left behind, accepting the fate
"Of what I have become"
The only way my soul can breath again
Is letting the one's we love move on
Let go!

The silent fight will have no winner
Now I see my world
Coming back to life
My eyes are finally open again
Now I see it all in a different light
Standing on the outside
While I'm looking in

I stand on the edge of the abyss and I'm waiting to fall
I see no way out in life
When I look back there was no one there for me
I stand on the edge of the abyss and I'm waiting to fall
And I'm waiting to fall

03. Wither

It's late at night, I watch the stars shine
I plead for giveness
I sit alone and watch a candle burn
Forgotten memories, I rise to make my turn
I stand alone and watch the moonlight
The last I remember the world was cold as ice
Gaze at the clock, it's nearly midnight
Wait for sunrise, that's when I'll go on

When love fades away
The hardest part is being all alone
And there's nothing you can do

Now as the night it slowly fades
I can not reveal my pain, because of greed
My wrists will bleed for one last struggle
In pain...
Please forgive me for what I have done
Now the end is upon me
You could not reveal the signs as I drifted away
Wither like a flower

When love fades away
The hardest part is being all alone
And there's nothing you can do

When you look into my eyes
I don't see it
I get this feeling I can't break through
You could've caught me to break my fall
Thought I had nothing to lose...

I assumed that you knew the reason why
And you know that there should be someone there to hold you in my arms tonight
Maybe you will know the reason why
But for now you'll move on alone, I belive in you...
Yeah, I believe in you!

It's got to be...
It's got to be forever
Thought I had nothing to lose...

05. Arrival Of Love

The morning came...
I can see you lying there
Your body next to mine,
"Oh God, she looks so fine..."
All my life i've been searching for someone
I thought it was lost
Then suddenly I met you...

I can not lose it all
Feel the love
The feelings I thought were gone, calling me
"You can not win'em all"
Is all I heard
She's the one who'll be there
Today

Finally the time has come to
Give eternal love, and to
Stay alive together is our destiny
No more sorrow, no more pain
And your presence keep me sane
In the night I'll hold you tight
Until the end

I can not lose it all
Feel the love
The feelings I thought were gone, calling me
We can not win'em all tonight
The fear of letting go
Now I'm the one who will be there

Where there's time for goodbye
In the darkest devotion
I'm the only one
Feel my heat when the silence surrounds you tonight

06. Zero

Life passed on today
She remembered all the times they had
It will never come back again
I can't wait for tomorrow
I can not bring back yesterday
Now I see the light before me
It just brings me on my way
Even in the shadows remain
Baby, I know that you and I will meet again someday

I know there's something you wanna say
You close the door at night
You make me go away

I try to make you remember... belief is all you need
And show you I'll be around forever
I try to make you remember me
I try to open your mind

Even if the stars remain
Baby, I know that you and I will meet again

I try to make you remember... belief is all you need
And show you I'll be around forever
I try to make you remember me
I try to open your mind

07. Mouth Of Madness

Desolate man, parted from the world
"Nobody sees me, and I'm not even a nobody..."
But in his mind, in his thoughts, he is sure
That this is not how he is meant to be
He wanders the streets, with a near empty bottle of wind in his hand
He is cold from the rain and wind
The last red sip keeps him warm
"I am on my own, with no direction of home...
A complete unknown..."
That very night he had an eerie dream,
That would tell that things are not what it seems

Death has reared himself a throne
In a strange city lying alone
Far down within the dim West
Where the good and the bad and the worst and the best
Had they gone to their eternal rest?

He awakes in awe, as a man in front of him
The man explains of why and when
The new order of ages will rise again

Ultimate sacrifice demands great pain
No longer all alone, yet gone from the real world

"Mere puppets are they! As they will obey us they know, the 6, the invincible woe!
We consist of the most influential souls of this world, soon our order starts its dwell
To infiltrate into life, and let mankind through Hell!"

Liberate tu te me ex inferis

Behind the curtains laid an all too dark secret
The highly evolved, ascended masters controlled the destiny of mortal man
Advanced technology ploughed their path
Intelligent entities who only knew wrath
A staib in the back, a Judas kiss
In ignorance they obey

Marching unnoticed into land and nation
Without a moment's hesitation
A shattering assault was drawing nearer
Yet the final result was not here
One last dance all too unethical and wild
"Shed the blood of an innocent child"
For him this would be too big a burden
He resists, and refuse
In denial, he awakes...

Wait, something isn't right
A familiar face appears
In the distance, a white padden room
And needles in his flesh
"This can't be! Where have I been?"
"I'm not alone!"
"You've been here all along
Glad you've come around
Thought we had lost you there for a moment
Welcome back!"

Ultimate sacrifice demands great pain
No longer all alone yet gone from the real world
Something wasn't right, nothing we could do
"Still I'm gone from the real world"

08. From Childhood's Hour

From childhood's hour he's been his only friend
Endless solitude until the end
As other's saw he could not bring
His passions from a common spring
In his growth he was raised and taught well
All that he loved, he loved alone
In his youth the surroundings drew nearer still
Like an autumn breeze that gives its chill
The thoughts were not keeping up with the learning spree
Leaving him behind the others could not see
"Show me hope, if I'd ever to last"
The dark haunts his present and his past
The melody of his heart chimed the wrong tone

In the day, in the dawn
Of a stormy life was drawn
From every depth of good and ill
The mystery... it binds him still
From which he could not love the less
So levely was the loneliness
As a man he still dwelt alone
Wandering around a world of moan
Thinking will he ever get his bride?
Or is his life a stagnant tide?
Into a self made Hell he was thrown
All that he loved, he loved alone

Leaving him behind the others could not see
"Show me hope, if I'd ever to last, on my own!"

Thinking will he ever get his bride?
Or is his life a stagnant tide?
Into a self made Hell he was thrown
All that he loved, he loved alone

09. Ultimate Sacrifice

I don't know where to sleep at night, I don't know which way to go
Will I ever be the same? The same as I was before?
Now is time for me to move on through the waters of time
From the ashes I will rise like the morning sun
I can not explain the way it is
It's just something that went wrong
Deep in the core of a mans mind
I will search to find the answers to this mystery of technology we make
Listen to me, there is something that you have to do

While the fire shines bright, I hear the screams from a motherless child
It's tearing me deep down inside

You can not imagine the pain it gives
When you stand there alone and powerless
You need someone to lean on
Now I've been looking for the solution to this crime
This time we shall stand our cause and remember why we fought

In the dark comes the rain with agony and pain
Now I could not see the hands before me
I will never surrender
I'm a survivor and this is my destiny

I can't not believe the truth
There is nothing I can say or do to make it all better
Now it's time for you to fall
There is nothing you can do or say, your day will come tomorrow

Now a new day is approaching the atrocity has been done
I remove the dirt from my eyes just to see what the world's become
When I look back on all the things I've been throguh
Now we must realize that this must be the remembrance of us all

In the dark comes the rain with agony and pain
Now I could not see the hands before me
I will never surrender
I'm a survivor and this is my destiny
